The book said and I quote, "She (Harper Weems) was so excited about the deal, she
was thinking of naming her new rocket lines after dinosaur species: T. rex, Carnosaur, Raptor, and so on" Is that what you meant?

Also at the end of Waste of Space, the book says, "It took another twenty minutes for all the safety checks to
